Hot Diamonds Designer, Julie Leary Introduces Hot Diamonds — the UK’s Best-selling Jewellery Brand

Hot Diamonds Designer, Julie Leary Introduces Hot Diamonds — the UK’s Best-selling Jewellery Brand











London, UK (PRWEB) December 19, 2008

During 2008, the re-design of Hot Diamonds went live. This exciting development is yet another step in the growth of the Hot Diamonds brand which has expanded phenomenally since its creation in 2001. Hot Diamonds chose February as their month launch — just in time for Valentines — with a stunning collection of sterling silver and diamond jewellery which included charms, diamond rings and diamond earrings. It was an overnight success; rapidly establishing themselves as the No.1 selling jewellery brand in the UK, a position they have currently held for over 6 years.

The creation of Hot Diamonds came from Sanford Simpson’s (Co-founder) love affair with jewellery and film:

“I don’t like cold things against my skin”…”Well why don’t you invent some Hot Diamonds?” Grace Kelly & Cary Grant, To Catch a Thief, 1955

And that’s what Sanford did – naming his company as a tribute to one of Hitchcock’s most glamorous films: ‘To Catch a Thief.’ Set on the French Riviera and starring Grace Kelly and Cary Grant, the film is a timeless classic that oozes sophistication; and of course…diamonds — two key attributes of our jewellery designs!

Since then they have expanded globally with sales in more than forty countries including the US, Russia, Australia and France. Their success has also been recognised by the jewellery industry — winning the UK Jewellery Brand of the Year award twice at the prestigious UK jewellery awards.

Inspired by the Four C’s – ‘Cut, Colour, Carat and Clarity’ (i.e. essential guidelines when buying a diamond), Hot Diamonds has their own version – it’s their mantra:

Creed: They are non-conformists. They strive to design jewellery that is original, beautiful and desirable. They want to democratise the jewellery industry – their promise is simple; to create irresistible jewellery using only genuine materials. Their creed is highlighted with the symbolic gesture of a diamond in each and every piece. A diamond is the most precious of gemstones; it embodies sensuality, mystery and beauty. This is their intimate gift to you, and a commitment to the belief that preciousness and great design should be accessible to all.

Creativity: They like thinking outside the box and strive to be creative in all that they do. Hot Diamonds are inspired by the world around us. Hot Diamonds don’t believe in sitting behind a desk but would rather be out there looking for new ideas, leading the trends. Anything can inspire: black and white Hollywood films, galleries, nature, travel, antique trimmings and fastenings, architecture and much, much more.

Craftsmanship: All Hot Diamonds jewellery is crafted from genuine materials: precious 18ct yellow gold, 9ct yellow and white gold, sterling silver, diamonds and more. Each stage in the design and development of Hot Diamonds jewellery is cherished and painstakingly undertaken. Hot Diamonds ensure that our continued craftsmanship and sensitivity to design remain at the forefront of all our activities. All their diamonds come from conflict free sources.

Commitment: They are a growing team of dedicated jewellery fanatics and are passionate about breaking new ground in jewellery design for women and men, Hot Diamonds aim to create beauty – quite simply, Hot Diamonds expect nothing less. They remain committed to their vision and are keen to share their belief that great jewellery should be accessible to all – They are convinced that jewellery is the key to long-lasting happiness…!”

Ernest Jones has Announced the Launch of Amanda Wakeley Jewellery

Ernest Jones has Announced the Launch of Amanda Wakeley Jewellery










Borehamwood, Herts (PRWEB) October 13, 2010

Ernest Jones, the diamond and watch specialist has announced the launch of Amanda Wakeley jewellery, exclusively designed for Ernest Jones. Winner of three British Fashion Awards for Glamour, Amanda Wakeley is synonymous with luxury and sophistication. The collection at Ernest Jones features four key themes of stylish jewellery; ‘The Statement’, ‘Linear Vintage’, ‘Skinny Diamonds’, The Drop and ‘The Zodiac’.

Inspired by the understated allure of her fashion collections, the Amanda Wakeley jewellery (http://www.ernestjones.co.uk/webstore/l/jewellery/brand%7Camanda+wakeley/ ) collection has been created exclusively for Ernest Jones. Each luxurious piece is crafted from chic sterling silver and hand-set with dazzling white, black or coffee-coloured diamonds.

Commenting on The Statement Collection, an elegant collection of jewellery for every day or evening wear, Amanda Wakeley said: “I wanted to create some bold pieces within the range by juxtaposing large sculptural shapes with tiny pavé diamond strips.”

The Linear Vintage Collection from Amanda Wakeley (http://www.ernestjones.co.uk/ ) combines the ‘contemporary, clean lines of dazzling diamonds with classic vintage inspired milgrain finishing, with key pieces including vibrant sterling silver and diamond pendants, hoop earrings, rings and bangles.’

The Skinny Diamonds Collection is ‘designed to be equally beautiful worn alone or stacked to give an endless layering combinations for a truly personalised look.’

Of The Zodiac Collection Amanda said that “the celestial influences of astrology combine with diamonds really appealed to me – easily worn with jeans or an evening dress. I hate the thought of diamond jewellery being kept only for social situations.”

The Drop collection features long, elegant pendants and earrings. “I love fine jewellery to have versatility,” said Amanda. “It’s modern and relevant to how we live now. One moment the spiral diamond pendant can be on a skinny choker, the next suspended on a long super fine chain.”

Glint Jewellery Provides an Antidote to Boho

Glint Jewellery Provides an Antidote to Boho










London (PRWEB) September 9, 2005

For those weary of the ubiquitous ‘boho’ beads and hippie earrings of recent seasons, Glint jewellery’s distinctive, feminine designs provide welcome relief.

Self-taught designer-maker Kate Wood launched Glint in December 2003. Her designs are characterised by soft, organic forms and subtle combinations of colours and surface textures. Kate makes each piece by hand, combining meticulous attention to detail with careful sourcing of quality materials to form elegant and affordable earrings, necklaces and bracelets.

After completing her French degree, Kate worked as a museum curator while continuing to indulge her passion for jewellery making in her spare time. ‘As I experimented with different materials and techniques, I began to think seriously about developing my own line of jewellery’, she says. ‘I always got compliments when I wore my designs, and the idea took root that this could grow into something special.’

Glint’s four themed collections are constantly evolving. Launching this autumn, Sequin is a capsule collection of simple, delicate 9ct yellow gold pieces with beaded detailing in shades inspired by Indian textiles.

Cluster is a range of delicate pieces in oxidised sterling silver with meticulously wire-wrapped accumulations of tiny freshwater pearls and semi-precious faceted beads, including unusual stones like tanzanite and apatite.

Swagger is dark and dramatic, with chunkier stones and layered chains, and Vintage Leaf is based around vintage brass leaf charms. ‘They have a great patina and an ancient, Greek or Roman look to them,’ adds Kate.

‘I love fashion, but I see my jewellery as going beyond seasonal trends,’ she continues. ‘I aim to create pieces that women will wear for years to come.’

Glint jewellery is carried in selected London boutiques and is available to buy online from http://www.glintjewellery.co.uk
